Hi Forum,

Boats are getting bigger, skies lighter. So I have this Idea....

Would like to bring a Spark 2up along with the 285, of course only in calm conditions.

The mounting brackets of the platform are huge, and standing with two people on the extended platform also doesn't feel wrong. The ski doesn't weigh much more than two adults, so this could work.

Any thoughts?



Thanks, Patrick

It might work. BUT, I wouldnt want to be there if/when it doesn't.

If it were me, I would just tow it DIY with a rope and PVC pipe (to keep it from rear-ending the boat). Seems like it would also be easier to "load/unload." I'd be interested in seeing what you come uo with.
